Christian singer Katy Jara again turned on social networks with a series of publications that many users interpreted as a criticism of the recent designation of Cardinal Robert Prevost Like the new Pope Leo XIV In the Vatican. His attitude reserved for appointment and his subsequent biblical message caused a wave of divided reactions and opinions.
The controversy began when Jara shared a message in his official account, in which he wrote: “Do not ask me: neither for the Pope. Neither bull. Nor for Aguayo. I am occupied by reading the Bible.” This publication was taken by many as a cold and distant statement against the historical event that has caused a stir in the country, since the new Pontiff lived for decades in Peru and is considered a Peruvian citizen for naturalization.
Far from going back, Katy jara launched an even more forceful publication, citing Isaiah 53: 5: “More was injured by our rebellions, ground by our sins; the punishment of our peace was about him, and for his sore we were cured. Jesus Christ is the lion of the tribe of Judah, he did not kill him, he himself gave his life for me.”
This second message, loaded with evangelical Christian references, was interpreted by many as a comparison between Jesus and the new Pope, which fueled the indignation between some Catholic sectors.
-The reactions soon arrived. Some users accused the former Cumbia singer of generating controversy intentionally, writing comments such as: “What the lady wants is to look controversy” or “quiet you are better, Katy.” However, she responded to one of the users with a firm but serene tone: “I did not know that quoting the Bible was critical.”
